Hi, I have now made up my mind to get the Maxi Rider. What a splurge. But, I'm not 100% sure whether to get the AHR version or not. Ok, it's supposed to be a little safer. Not sure how much of a difference it really would make. But I am leaning a little to the AHR.

My main concern atm is that in DD's current car seat, when she falls asleep, she slumps forward. I want one where she can sleep comfortably as she sleeps most of the time when in the car.
With the AHR, I'm not sure whether it would actually help her keep her head up properly because of the side protection, Or whether it would push it forward a little because of the added bulk behind the head. Also, does it get quite hot in it with all that extra padding around her head? DD is a very hot child, and especially her head sweats a lot.

Althouh it really doesn't count but apart from being cheaper, I actually like the designs of the plain MR better than the AHR version.

If you have one, can you please let me know how well you think your child sleeps in it? I just don't want to spend this amount of money just to regret it again. If I should decide to buy the AHR but then later on find that the head support hinders her rather than supports, is it removable?

Thanks for your input.
